Default Most functions do not work and return #Name?

Cheers mate.

You need to activate couple of add-ins.

Goto Tools--Add-ins --

Click the checkbox for Analysis ToolPak and Analysis ToolPak - VBA

and then click OK.

You might need Office CD as well, if these features were not installed at
the first time.

Go into Excel help, look up the functions QUOTIENT, COMPLEX, and IMAGINARY
and see what it says at the end of the sentence which starts:
"If this function is not available, and returns the #NAME? error, ..."


If in doubt, it's always worth trying Excel help.

Most functions I enter return a #NAME? error in the field


Example Functions that do NOT work:
=QUOTIENT(5, 2)
=complex(3,4)
=IMAGINARY("3+4i")
(None of the engineering functions work)


All of the above functions return the error "#NAME?"


Example functions that work:
=sum
=odd
=even
=concatenate
Logical functions all work.


I have tried other computers at my company and it works fine.


Any ideas?


Cheers,


James
